Exploiting the capacity of 1mm PMMA step-index polymer optical fibers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Three different techniques are discussed that are currently under investigation at Siemens Corporate Technology – Information and Communications in order to exploit the bandwidth capacity of 1 mm PMMA Step-Index Polymer Optical Fiber (SI-POF). By using Adaptive Multitone Modulation (AMTM) a record result of 540 Mb/s transmission over 100 m of SI-POF is achieved.

Raman Spectra of a PMMA Microstructured Optical Fibre and Direct Measurement of Its Gain Coefficient
A polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microstructured polymer optical fiber (mPOF) is fabricated and characterized. Using the cut-back technique the fiber loss is measured which is higher than the step-index silica fibers. Through a novel experimental scheme, the backward Stokes spectrum of the fabricated mPOF is recorded over a range exceeding 3000 cm‑1 during the cut-back method and compared ...

At first step polymer optical fibers (POFs) are used in short distance for optical data transmissions. At second step SiO2 nanoparticles were prepared by sonochemical-assisted method. Silica nanoparticles were added to polymer matrix to prepare polymer based nanocomposites. Most of the POF applications are in the medical and electrical devices. There are several methods for fabrication of POFs,...

متن کاملPropose of a novel method to simulate and optimize a polymer optical fiber daylighting system
Optical fiber day lighting systems help the efficiency of using solar energy in the lighting system in domestic, industrial and agricultural sectors. A lot of work has been done on these systems, but the lack of a reliable simulation method to reduce the tolerance, time and cost is evident. In this regard, in this paper, a novel method based on two powerful Optifiber and Zemax software has bee...
متن کاملTwo Different Solutions for Gigabit Ethernet Transmission over POF
Two completely different approaches for a Gigabit Ethernet compliant stream transmission over 50m of 1mm PMMA SI-POF have been experimentally demonstrated and are compared in this paper. The first solution is based on a commercial RC-LED transmission and a careful optimization of the physical layer architecture, realized during the POF-PLUS EU Project. The second solution exploits the performan...
